CFFC 10TH WINTER FLY SWAP

Rabbit under-fur mixed with a few guard hairs (I used Musk Rat - see notes below)

Rib:

Copper wire, or silver and gold (I have used fine copper wire)

Tier's Comments: - Musk Rat is pretty buoyant so this fly either sinks slowly or stays just beneath the surface, depending on how much of a thorax it has. I have used this variant successfully on both the river Creedy and the river Taw. On both occasions there was little evidence of surface feeding and not much showing down deep.
